Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 6: As his birthday approaches, ‘KGF’ star Yash shared an intriguing new poster from his upcoming film, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-ups, on Monday.
The striking poster features a silhouette of Yash in a white tuxedo jacket and fedora, leaning against a vintage car while blowing a ring of smoke. The caption, “Unleashing him…”, adds a layer of mystery to the teaser, with a cryptic reference to the date 8-1-25 and the time 10:25 AM. The makers promise a special revelation for Yash’s fans on his birthday.
The film, directed by Geetu Mohandas, began production on August 8 in Bengaluru last year, and is expected to be a dark, captivating journey.
Along with the poster release, Yash also penned a heartfelt message to his fans, requesting them not to engage in any grand birthday celebrations. This comes after some tragic incidents during his previous birthday celebrations, where three of his fans lost their lives while setting up a large cutout in his honor. The actor had expressed solidarity with the bereaved families and extended support during that time.
In his note, Yash emphasized that the greatest gift he could receive is knowing that his fans are safe and thriving. He urged them to refrain from extravagant displays and focus on achieving their personal goals instead.
“As the new year begins, I reflect on the love and support I’ve received over the years. However, there have been unfortunate incidents, and it’s time for us to change the way we express our love. The greatest gift for me is knowing you are safe, setting positive examples, and spreading joy,” Yash wrote.
He also mentioned that he will be busy shooting on his birthday and will not be in town but expressed gratitude for his fans’ constant wishes.
“Though I’ll be busy shooting, your warmth will always reach me. Stay safe, and I wish you all a very happy 2025,” he added.
Yash’s thoughtful request highlights his desire for a safer and more meaningful way of celebrating his birthday with his fans.
